N-propanol (CAS 71-23-8) miscible in water and freely miscible with all common solvents such as glycols, ketones, alcohols, aldehydes, ethers and aliphatic hydrocarbons, 1-propanol is primarily used as a solvent in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, coatings and as a chemical intermediate.
Can n-propanol (CAS 71-23-8) be used as a solvent?
n-Propanol (CAS 71-23-8) has a polar hydroxyl (-OH) group that attracts other polar molecules, combined with a three-carbon chain that can dissolve non-polar substances. This makes it a versatile, medium-polarity solvent suitable for many applications.
- Coatings and printing inks: This is a primary solvent used in the formulation of flexographic and rotogravure inks, as well as certain coatings and lacquers. It offers an optimal balance of solvency and evaporation rate.
- Cleaning and degreasing: It effectively removes oils, greases and resinous residues from industrial cleaning solutions and electronic cleaners.
- Natural Products & Extraction: It is used to extract oils, waxes and resins from natural materials and as a solvent for flavour and fragrance compounds.
- Chemical Manufacturing & Synthesis: It serves as a reaction medium or solvent in the production of other chemicals, such as propyl acetate.
- Pharmaceuticals & Cosmetics: It acts as a solvent for active ingredients, resins and cellulose derivatives in various formulations.
